that doesn't make sense.

zero is zero...

doesn't matter if its no ems or no points its zero.

how can giving zero a unit identifier help in any way?

if you're suggesting that someone might want to make the value more =20
than zero and would need an identifier then I kind of see where =20
you're going, but it should be obvious from the rest of the style =20
sheet what units are in use and if not, then which unit gets used =20
won't matter much.

zero is zero, apples, oranges px or =A3's if you haven't got any, you =20=

haven't got any...
